Don't usually like Magpul type stuff but that looks tasty, not too OTT :-)

Just ordered a new selector plate for my M16 because the stock one doesn't have a metal piece on it, a metal piece which I NEED for my ASCU to work <_<

 

Speaking of which, is a G&P 120 motor good enough for use with an ASCU, or will I need to upgrade it? It'll be tugging on an M120 spring once it's all assembled.

 

Anyway, I also ordered some gun grease, silicone spray and 3 bottles of .25g Blasters, can't believe Landwarrior had everything in stock tbh, it's usually a bitch getting hold of .25s, I'm expecting an email saying they don't have enough any minute lol.

Just trying to get gearbox back into lower receiver.

 

If the box goes in then you cant select anything then when you pull box back out the selector gets caught on disk inside the safety swirch and snaps.

 

just wasted 8 quid! been quoted £35 to supply and fit a new one.

I had that problem as well, tried to fit a new gearbox in my old M4 as stock one was crap. Snapped the stock selector plate on the new gearbox, then bought a new plate, was just as hard to get in, didn't snap the plate, but was really stiff to change fire mode, so sold the M4 and still got the gearbox sitting here :(.

 

Gonna build an M4 from scratch though (apart from the internals as I have all those..).

It could be worth smothering it in grease when you get another one. Well... if you do. £35 though... Nah, I'm sorry but that is taking the piddle!

 

I assume that, at some point, it wasn't so stiff?

Never had an issue with it. I upgraded the spring and then couldnt get the box back in.

 

managed to get the new plate on with out taking the box apart but then it wouldn't go back in.

 

£35 was from Zero One. Called Combat south (my local shop) and they said £40 plus part and if they break it I will have to buy another one!

 

It is all down to the G&P 8mm gearbox being a bitch. Friend of a friend has just started up and he said 22.50 all in.
